Photosynthesis

Which of the following is one reactant (ingredient) for photosynthesis?

• Oxygen

• Soil

• Carbon dioxide

• Sugar

How does most of the water needed by the plant get into its leaves?

• It enters through the stomata

• The roots absorb it and then it travels up the xylem

• It's made during a chemical reaction in the stem

• The flowers capture water and deliver it to the leaves

Why do plants conduct photosynthesis?

• To make light

• To make mitochondria

• To make glucose

• To release carbon dioxide

Which organelle in the plant cell performs photosynthesis?

• Chloroplast
• Mitochondria
• Nucleus
• Cytoplasm

What is the source of energy for photosynthesis?

• ATP energy

• Light energy

• Wind energy

• Energy from the roots

Which of the following is the correct equation for PHOTOSYNTHESIS?

• CO₂ + H₂O ---sunlight---> O₂ + C₆H₁₂O₆

• CO₂ + C₆H₁₂O₆ + H₂O ---> O₂ + sunlight

• O₂ + H₂O ---sunlight---> CO₂ + C₆H₁₂O₆

• CO₂ + O₂ + H₂O ---> sunlight + C₆H₁₂O₆

What is the pigment in chloroplasts that performs photosynthesis?

• Cytoplasm

• Chlorophyll

• Green Jello

• Leaf coloring

Which statement about photosynthesis is correct?

• Plants get the energy they need for photosynthesis from water.
• Plants get the energy they need for photosynthesis from soil.
• Plants get the energy they need for photosynthesis from sunlight.
• Plants do not require energy to perform photosynthesis.
